Hayden is in ICU

Hello everyone,

Hayden went into the hospital Tuesday, and had emergency shunt surgery in the middle of the night Tuesday. His shunt dysfunctioned (not draining properly), so he has a new pump and a new cathater (he had to be opened up on his head AND tummy).

He is still in the PICU because his heartbeat is irregular and his stomach isn't draining the brain fluid properly. We don't know if he needs another surgery today or not...just waiting on answers. He is a fighter, like always.

Lisa and our Mom have been troopers, sleepinging (hardly) in chairs in the ICU--never leaving Hayden's side.

Please pray for our little man, he really needs them right now.

Hat's Off To Krystal!

Hat's off to Krystal! She stayed focused and never had a nervous break down. You really are a amazing young lady. I personally want to thank all the family and friends who worked so hard before, during and after the event. I have never worked with a better group of people! Eveything ran so smooth. Thanks to the muscles too. William, Wayne, Jeremy, Eric, Cody, Dylan and so many more... Also to our auctioneer Cory who made the auction such a success and so much fun. I enjoyed meeting everyone and hope to stay in touch. You truly are Hayden's Angel's!!! What a great day.

Starla

We need to thank Krystal too!

That girl worked so hard on this, you would've thought the money was for her, lol! But she did an awesome job at organizing our meetings and keeping in touch and keeping up with all the thousand little details. Guess it's that teacher thing!

She really loves her sister and baby Hayden and we all were witness to just how much. All three of them inspired me and kept me going on this benefit. They are wonderful people and I'm glad to call them my family!

Brenda

Thanks to Everyone!

Thanks so much to everyone that donated their time, product, and money for Hayden's benefit! It was definitely a lot of fun, and a success! We raised money for Hayden's special needs trust that will definitely help purchase much needed medical equipment and so forth!

To the people and businesses that donated: Thank you so very much for your gracious donations! Without you all, we wouldn't have been able to raise the money for our sweet little Hayden!

To the people who came: Thank you so much for your support! We appreciate you coming out and spending your Sunday with us! We all hope you had fun and enjoyed the time spent at the Baby Hayden Benefit!

To our volunteers: You rock! We couldn't have done it without all of you! There are a couple of people I think that didn't take a break all day (because they wanted to keep working!!) Wow! We appreciate all of the hard work and dedication you all put into this--trust me, it did not go unnoticed! The cookers stayed out ALL NIGHT Saturday night AND cooked and served ALL DAY Sunday! What would we have done without all of you? Thanks so much for your generosity and compassion...and that great BBQ!!!

To Brenda and Starla: We would not have been able to have a benefit without the help from you two! You both played such important roles in this entire process, and I appreciate your mentoring and dedication so much! I don't know what I would have done without you!!

To Lisa and Hayden: You two are the best duo I have ever met! Te most dedicated Mother and most precious son! I can't think of a more deserving pair than the two of you! Hayden truly is a blessing, and Lisa a Godsend.

If I have missed anyone, thanks so much to you as well =)
